(5) Responsibility for Costs - Pennsylvania Breach of Personal Information Notification Act. In addition to any other obligation of Provider under the Contract, and notwithstanding any other provision in the Contract to the contrary, in the event the City or any agency or administrative or judicial body determines that a Breach of Personal Information (as that term is defined in the Pennsylvania Breach of Personal Information Notification Act, 73 P.

(f) Termination. (1) Termination for Cause. In addition to and without limiting any other termination rights or remedies of the City provided for in the Contract, the City shall have the right to terminate the Contract immediately if (i) upon becoming aware of an Event of Default arising out of these City PHI Terms, the City determines in its sole discretion that such Event of Default constitutes a material breach of these City PHI Terms and (ii) Provider fails to cure the Event of Default within ten (10) days after the City notifies Provider of the Event of Default. (2) Effect of Termination. At termination of the Contract for any reason, unless Provider is mandated by Applicable Law to retain the Protected Health Information or unless the City directs Provider, or agrees in writing to allow Provider, to retain the Protected Health Information after the Contract terminates, Provider shall return all Protected Health Information to the Responsible Official or, if directed by the Responsible Official in writing to do so, shall destroy all Protected Health Information that Provider still maintains or otherwise holds in any form, and Provider shall retain no copies of such information in any electronic, paper, or other form, format, or medium. To the extent Provider is mandated by Applicable Law or directed or authorized by the City to retain any Protected Health Information after the termination of the Contract, Provider agrees to extend the protections of these City PHI Terms to the information and limit further uses and disclosures strictly to those purposes that are mandated by Applicable Law or that are expressly authorized by the City in writing. At such time as Provider is no longer mandated by Applicable Law or directed or authorized by the City to retain the Protected Page 12 of 13

Health Information, Provider shall return to the Responsible Official or, if directed by the Responsible Official in writing to do so, shall destroy all Protected Health Information retained by Provider, and Provider shall retain no copies of such information in any electronic, paper, or other form, format, or medium. If Provider destroys any Protected Health Information, Provider agrees to use a technology or methodology that renders the Protected Health Information unusable, unreadable, or indecipherable to unauthorized individuals in accordance with the most recent guidance issued by the Secretary pursuant to the HITECH Act. The above notwithstanding, to the extent Provider, during the term of the Contract, maintains or otherwise holds any Protected Health Information for or on behalf of the City that the City has a legal obligation to retain under any local, state or federal records retention laws, Provider shall retain such Protected Health Information that is not returned to the City for the time period and in accordance with such retention laws. The foregoing paragraph shall apply to Protected Health Information in the possession of Subcontractors or Agents, shall be enforced by Provider with respect to such Subcontractors and Agents, and shall be incorporated in any Subcontract or other agreement between Provider and such Subcontractors or Agents for the performance of the Services or provision of the Materials. (g) Miscellaneous. (1) Privacy Law Modifications Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Contract, the Provider and the City agree that these City PHI Terms shall be deemed automatically modified as the City in its sole judgment deems necessary from time to time to insure continued compliance with the requirements of HIPAA, the HITECH Act, the HIPAA Rules, and Other Privacy Laws, and all regulations implemented pursuant thereto, such modification to be effective upon the City posting the modified Terms and Conditions Relating to Protected Health Information (referred to as City PHI Terms ) on the City s website (at https://secure.phila.gov/econtract/ under the About link).
